Tuesday, November 21, I joined the cast and characters of TV’s Gunsmoke for the Remembering Gunsmoke event at the Autry Museum of the American West. We were interviewed by the producer/host Rob Word, see here with my new book, West of Hell.

- It is a western with a difference - mixing the unforgiving, often violent world of the West with romance and mystery.Also, I am proud to note that the cover art for 'West of Hell' was done by Billy Schenck, America’s foremost living painter of Western art.

Hello there! I am happy that we have been able to stay in touch via this website, and of course, with Facebookand Twitter.

After a number of years living and working abroad, this native born, 5th generation Southern Californian, is happily married and settled not far from where he was born. Although I really like it here, I have also enjoyed my many years of residing in Rome,Italy, San Jose,Costa Rica and Toronto,Canada.

Except for my daughter and two grandchildren in Southern Germany, most of my family is living in this general area. My parents have passed on, but three of my children and three of my grandchildren, as well as a large extended family, live reasonably nearby.

Apart from my successful screen career, I have kept up with my novel and screenplay writing, plus:- Six years teaching at the University of Costa Rica, and acting in some Spanish language movies and TV.- Many years in Canada, acting in US & Canadian movies & TV. - I spent the balance of my years abroad in Rome, Italy, enjoying a long career as a star in numerous European movies & TV.I am looking forward to co-starring in a new Spaghetti Western, "The Legend Lives," that will soon be going into production.

I’ve been happy following a less conventional career path, and now consider myself as a writer who acts rather than as an actor who writes.The details, some photos, video links, and some reminiscences will be found elsewhere in this website. I hope you enjoy looking through it!
